In EXPLANATION.

In Sundays issue of THE HERALD, in
a news item noting the failure of the
Mutual Trust Fund Assessment Com.
pany OF New York, it was stated that q
San Francisco assessment company
which had lately come here had been
giving policies among the Influential
people, and that the instructions given
to local agent were: "All you can
collect from your friends put in your
pocket; all we care about is the assess
ments." The information came to US
for what we believed TO be a reliable
source, but it seems that we were de-
ceived. II. A. Whitney, the only local
agent of the company referred to,
assures US that no such instructions
were given to him, and, furthermore,
that no policies have been given away.
We also know personally some of The
officials of the insurance concern in
question, and do not beneye they would
engage in or sanction the crookedness
alleged by our Informant.

BISHOP SHARP INTERVIEWED.
Opinion of the Bill How he
Looks at the Interstate
Commerce Bill,

John Sharp, bishop in the Mormon
church and one of the railro ID kings OF
Utah. was in the city for short time
to-day, en- route to New York. In an
interview he pronounced the anti
polygamy bill as un.American, and said
he hoped it would not pass Congress.
II am going to New York, where 1 will
meet Delegate Game, and will confer
with him in regard to this Mormon
bull, and will visit Washington before
| ret8rn. The bill is tyrannical, I'M
Just, and far from being in accord
with American principles. If it be-
comes law, our people will have'prac-
tically no voice in their government.
All of our officers will either be ap-
pointed by the Governor or the Pres,-l
dent. Game in his speech gave some
points for honest Congressman to con-
sider.n
"Do you think the bill will pass?"
Well, l should very much dislike to
think so. No, sir; l do not believe the
measure will become a law. If it does,
l am ruined man. hope for the best.
I'm the vice-presi dent of the Utah Cen
trail Railway company. and have large
interests at stake. While | am bishop
in the Mormon Church, do not want
to violate the United Sta, es law. l was
.arraigned by the churC b authorities not
long ago because in conforming with
he civil law / violated some rules of

further conversation Oh the Nor
Il question, Bishop Sharp lntimated
that there would be great comnotlon
IN Utah should the bill pass. Concern
ing the interstate commerce bill he ex-
pressed his opinion as railroad man:
at is wrong-another bad move on the
part of Congress. 1t will be bad for
the western people. 1t is b)sh. The
question of rates should be left with
the railroad companies to arrange.
Why, the rate from here to Salt Lab
City is more than it is to San Francisco,
and so it should be. The railroad com
panies can not l. crease the rate to the
Pacific coast. and continue to compete
with shipments by water These are
questions which must be taken into
consideration. The bill will kill itself.
1t will have to be radically changed or
repealed. Congress will soon see where
it has made great mistake.
Bishop Sharp will. remain in the
east for couple of weeks.

LIABILITY OF ESTATES.
Interesting Legal Points Regarding
Trustee Estates.

The case of J. Y. B. Mccarthy VS. Chris
TOPPER Murphy, trustee for the estate of his
three minor children, which was tried at
Justice Molina's Office yesterday afternoon,
promises to bring out some interesting legal
points. Mr. Mccarthy entered suit at the
last November term of the Justices Court,
for Si7 45, being for the tuition. stationery,
etc, of two of the children. When the case
came up for trial the defendant made no APP
pearance and Judgment for the plaintiff
was entered up by default. To satisfy that
Judgment the officers made a levy on thirty
five kegs of white lead as belonging to that
estate. Now Mr. Murphy, as trustee for
the estate, files an affidavit of illegality III
the judgments and levy.
The point is that the trust estate belongs
to three children, and the Judgment and
levy were for the tuition of two, thereby
imperiling the interests of the third
The plaintiff replied that as the defendant
was served personally, as trustee, and made
no defense, allowing the Judgment TO be
taken by default, the affidavit was not the
right way to protect others interests. He
should have stated, when the property was
levied upon, what the interests of the sew
eral children were in it. The estate, fur
ther, was not divided, so no hardship was
inflicted on the innocent parties.
Justice Molina heard the arguments of
counsel and reserved his decision till to-day
Messrs. duBiguon 81 Frazer and William
Clifton appeared for the plaintiff, and r.
r. Richards for the defendant.

Considerable inquiries are being made re-
garding the conditions of membership in
the Confederate Veterans Association, and
many persons are under the impression that
none but Georgians or those who served in
Georgia commands are admissible to mems
bership. This is an error as the constitf
ton of the Confederate Veterans As5ocia-
ton distinctly states that the privileges of
membership are open to all who served
honorably during the late war without re.
gard to State Inns or branches of
the service. Applications for MEM
bership must be in writing, accom-
panied by the written recommendation
of at least two members of the association,
and the initiation fee OF fifty cents. The
petition is referred to q committee of three
for examination, and report at the next
meeting, whether a regular or called one.
The dues are fifty cents per quarter, payable
in advance. The benefits of membership are
weekly aid during sickness and financial
distress, and proper sepulture in case of
death A detail will he made to pay funeral
